LYRICS Announcer: Once again it's show time! And here to introduce our next number is that paragon of pluck, that ace among aces, the pet cadet of the jet and corvette set, Rocky the flying squirrel! Rocky: Today we've really got something special, we're gonna learn how to sing harmony! Bullwinkle: Yeah! Rocky: Can you sing harmony Bullwinkle? Bullwinkle: I don't know! I never tried! Rocky: You wanna learn? Bullwinkle: I don't know Rock, my learnin' bone is none too sharp! Rocky: ...but... Bullwinkle: On the other hand, I got a forgettin' bone that just won't quit! Rocky: Just listen! First here's the bass part! He's got the lowest note. Bass Singer: 1, 5, 4, 2, 5, 6 and 1, 5! I'm not counting, I'm singing base you see! Rocky: Next in line is the baritone! He sings a little higher. Baritone Singer: Hear me add this part to your part, and then you'll know that I sing baritone! Rocky: When we put 'em together, it sounds like this! Bass and Baritone together. Rocky: The next voice'll be a tenor! Tenor Singer: My part has the tenor harmony. It's so awkward that it sounds funny! Bullwinkle: Let's hear all three of 'em! Bass, Baritone, and Tenor together. Rocky: Here's where the ladies come in! This is an alto! Alto: (Official Bullwinkle's version) I am the alto, not the soprano! This song is different, I sing the main part! Although I usually sing second fiddle, this time I got lucky right from the start! (Revised re-recorded version for Bill Scott's compilation) I am the alto, not the soprano! This one is different, I sing the main tune! Although I usually sing second vocalist, this time I got lucky right from the start! Bass, Baritone, Tenor, and Alto together. Rocky: And the top part is a Soprano! Soprano: (Official Bullwinkle's version) Me the soprano doesn't miss one note! I would give anything for a small change! (Revised re-recorded version for Bill Scott's compilation) I'm the soprano just on this one note! I would give anything for a small change! Rocky: Sorry about that! Now, let's put 'em all together! All parts together. Rocky: You can even do the same thing with instruments! Bullwinkle: That was great Rock! Now how 'bout all you folks out there? You wanna give it a whirl? Pick a part and let's go! First, the bass line! Now you! Rocky: Baritone! Join in now! Bullwinkle: Time for you tenors! Rocky: All the fellas! Bullwinkle: Now the ladies! Altos first! Rocky: Join in! Bullwinkle: Now all of you high voices who can sing just one note! Rocky: Now everybody! Chorus: The end! Rocky: Why not give yourselves a treat now! Visit our dessert counter for a piece of Bullwinkle's mousse! Bullwinkle: It always hits the right note! Back to Music
